Thanks zimagic, I loved getting french stuff, a few shinies and various staples.I also loved the long, educational addition to the Bolas tradition, it was quite entertaining and made me laugh as well! I'll link pictures within the next few!

Oh and merci encore plus as it is my birthday on Thursday, so this will be a memorable one for me.

So one package was delivered on the 13th and still no update/pictures... someone needs to check the mailbox!

I'm really sorry about that! It took an inexcusably long time for me to check the mail (we've been in a really bad habit of not checking it regularly), and then I tried to sit down and make a deck with Taigam, Ojutai Master really quick...

Yeah, now I have an obscene pile of like 1500+ cards sitting, staring...just staring at me...

Here's a few pics of the cards I was sent: album.So there's Taigam, which I'll need to build a budget deck out of. It's starting to look like a classic control build--card advantage, counter spells, and a few big hitters--might be the best to take advantage of his abilities. Then there's some dragons to see about fitting into my Crap Dragons deck. And some staple cards like Commander Tower and Sol Ring, both of which I can definitely use all over the place. Thank you so much Inkeyes!

I've received my gift!! I'll post about it tomorrow night -- I'm lowscale freaking out happily over more than one of the cards in it but also busy with some things. (Which, as of opening my mail, includes like, >=5% of my mental energy going into planning what I should do with these.) Thank you very much, swmystery!!

I'll be posting mine out later this week.

You're welcome! Although in truth I deserve only about half the credit. THAT item (you know whereof I speak) actually came from my partner. I was able to barter it from her once I explained about the nature of our dear exchange here...

Also, I should clarify a thing. Unless I added something when very drunk, I can't claim any credit for the Intet with heart eyes. I have no altering talent whatsoever- all my stuff is in the opening pictures.

Spacemonaut: Your Intet plan is approved of by both myself and the resident dragonmaster with whom I share a house. Go forth and dragon effectively! Couple of things though:

2) If you are not already aware, Mercadia's Downfall doesn't just refer to your own attacking creatures. It pumps the power of whatever creatures happen to be attacking. So if Player B attacks Player C with a horde of tokens, for instance...

We've got a few decks in our local meta that can reach a state of huge amounts of drawing -- any of these might happen!

Oooh... You're right.

That could be useful in either Mathas or Intet Dragons. And in Commander, that's guaranteed to be +5/+0 to all attackers pretty easily!

So you guys know, I'll be late sending my package out, but I'll make sure to have it out by the 10th. I've had some health issues crop up lately, but I should be mostly functional (and able to drive) in a few days or so, once I can stop taking these horrid painkillers from getting cut up.
